Learning magic is not an easy task.

Even if Li Aoz raised his [Intelligence] to 84 points, he still couldn't fully digest so much knowledge at once.

Magic is a practical discipline. This depends on the nature of magic. The construction of a magic is actually not the "spell casting" that laymen think, but like programming, building a model, inputting instructions, and deriving results.

When you recite a mantra, you actually say it to yourself.

A layman's imagination of spellcasting: Ah, fiery element of fire, please condense into a fireball and burn my enemies! ——Failed to release, magic backfired, vomiting blood.

In fact, the magician's spellcasting: [Add: Fire element - Condensation/placement - Suspended palm = 5cm] Event driven - Filling coefficient [while range is greater than 500 yards = burst] - Self-correction error = 0] - - Release failure - Restart - hello world!

For another example, the most talked about high-level magic [Fireball Art], as a spell that requires "Shaping Magic Studies" and "Element Advancement Theory" as the basis, in addition to constructing the spell, it also involves how to launch, how to aim, and how to correct the shooting trajectory.

For this reason, if you want to release a fireball with precise lethality and stable controllability, you also need to learn "Ballistics", "Calculus", "Experimental Aerodynamics", "Nuclear Physics" and other auxiliary subjects.

This is actually easy to understand, because the actual battlefield of the mage is in space, the battlefield bombarded by high-energy rays, and the desolate planetary belt. Every combat spell is born to adapt to the vast cosmic environment.

However, spells are a bit good. As long as a few formulas are removed from combat spells, they can be directly converted from military to civilian. This is the biggest advantage of Magic Side Civilization. If you pile up military magic to your heart's content, you can harvest civilian magic with high efficiency.

Because of this, Magic Side's civilization has almost no soil for corporate companies. Instead, there are various Magic Workshop controlled by the military and government, as well as academic groups represented by individuals and school bureaucrats, using these to fill jobs.

The main direction of Li Aoz is "Universal Magic", which is the basis of everything. The problem studied is Magic Civilization's objective exploration and summary of the laws of all things in the world.

The practicality of "Universal Magic" is very poor, and there are almost no spells that can be learned in the early stage, but Li Aoz chose to specialize without hesitation, because this theory is so classic, he can completely use it as a basis to dig out a Worldview in "Objective Materialism" - this is also his purpose.

When learning magic and science, you are learning materialism, otherwise you should learn Zhiyin.

"Objective Materialism" and "Objective Idealism" are the two most mainstream Worldview ideas in the universe. Choosing "Objective Materialism" comes with [Ideological Deconstruction], which has 50% learning correction for any extraordinary knowledge. It will be easy to transfer to various Worldview in the future.

What's more, "Objective Materialism" itself can provide a Li Aoz, as well as all the advantages that Spellcasters cannot refuse: Features · "Purified Paradise" - units with "divine nature" cannot be exempted from all your spell effects.

This characteristic can be called 'God Slayer', and for this reason, the mages of Objective Materialism and Martial Artist are the groups with the largest number of god-killers.

By the way, Lord Entropy is a unit with 'divine nature'.

"With Tannhauser's talent, I can stably win "Objective Materialism" within four years. In this way, I can also contribute to the fight against Mr. Entropy."

Azure Planet is the base camp of Li Aoz. He has friends and power. It is impossible for him to give up such an important place. Besides, Li Aoz does not intend to let go of [Imitation Society].

He wanted to find an opportunity to kill Mr. Entropy and [Imitation Society] at the same time.

On the other hand, Li Aoz discovered an interesting thing.

Along with his breakthrough in understanding and in-depth understanding of magic theory, Li Aoz has mastered a specialty called [Bowen Qiangji], which can increase the speed of proficiency improvement by 10%.

There was nothing special about it originally. After all, it is normal for expertise to emerge through practice and deep learning.

It wasn't until Li Aoz was checking the status of his genitals that he glanced at the expertise column.

——[Bowen Qiangji], impressively on the list!

"The expertise and knowledge I have learned on my own will stay with me throughout my life, rather than disappearing when my body is replaced... This is different from the game, and the system does not show it, but it does exist."

Li Aoz is even more convinced of his previous inference - Qiqiao Network has indeed covered up and blocked a lot of things, especially the understanding of the knowledge and information in the game.

Why do they do this? Is it to maintain the stability of Terra Federation (Real World), or... are they afraid of knowledge itself? After all, players have more than just sophisticated knowledge. Some players have already collected fantasy-level knowledge.

If based on the nature of 'knowledge technology', the 'body' of Eye of Discernment, one of the Destroyers, and combined with this setting, maybe... in reality, they are more afraid of 'Eye of Discernment'.

Li Aoz didn't think about it carefully. If he continued like this, he felt that he would sink deeper and deeper and sooner or later he would be eroded and corrupted by society.

The boundary between reality and games has been blurred, but Li Aoz, who has always liked to make trouble, still knows what the priorities are. He began to immerse himself in study and devote his energy to the serious study of magic.

In addition to studying textbooks, Li Aoz did not forget to memorize questions by rote, and used question-sea tactics to answer questions repeatedly to strengthen his test-taking ability. Li Aoz was very familiar with these things. It didn't cost much to do the questions anyway, but he was so motivated.

Facts have proved that practice requires a threshold, but doing questions does not, and it will indeed benefit a lot.

Two weeks later, Li Aoz closed the book and walked out of the house.

"The roll is over, it's time to go out."

Li Aoz came to the Public Flying Carpet site in the village. Today is the day when the exam starts in the city. Magic Aptitude Test takes place once every two weeks, which is still a big expense for rural people. Therefore, everyone prepares very carefully and feels confident that they will start the exam.

Although this is not uncommon, the exam lasted for five full days, so there were many people sending off and blessing. The family members rushing to take the exam grabbed the candidates and repeatedly checked whether they had brought anything missing before getting on the flying carpet. The packages were filled with snacks, food and a change of clothes that they would not bear to eat on weekdays.

While comforting their children, they said, 'Don't be nervous, we'll come back next year at worst,' while murmuring with secretly hopeful expressions, 'If you pass the exam, you will be proud of your ancestors.'

Luther's figure was also among the many candidates, and Li Aoz was spotted at a glance.

The main person who saw him off was indeed a bit conspicuous: in addition to being accompanied by his cute and considerate childhood sweetheart, there was also a hot and mature Yu Jie, who looked similar to Luther's face. She was probably his sister or something like that. She smiled and comforted, 'It's okay, sister believes in you'; Yu Jie Standing next to her was a rich loli with a round face, big eyes, and golden twin tails. She always turned her face away when talking to Luther, her cheeks were flushed, and she deliberately pretended to say, "I'm just passing by. I, I didn't mean to see you off. For a person like you, I don't care whether you pass the exam or not."

There was also a dark-haired literary girl with a cold temperament and glasses. She gently adjusted the frame of her glasses and faced her farewell. She just said lightly, 'It doesn't matter. No matter where you take the exam, I can pass it.'

This kid's parents didn't come, but the whole harem group came, and the farewell gifts occupied three seats.

——Li Aoz Suddenly felt that the beating before seemed a bit light.
